ProdigalFrogWhy don't Americans use electric kettles? | Technology Connections [24:54]
SpaceCowboyI rarely use all four elements on my stove at the same time so 99% of the time the kettle is sitting on an unused element instead of taking up counter space like an electric kettle would.
Chadus_MaximusIt you put the electric kettle on your stove it doesn’t take up counter space.
If I turn on the wrong burner?
Right now, that just heats up a kettle that’s designed to be heated up by an element underneath it.
If I have an electric kettle on that burner? I got a melted kettle and possibly a fire.
Important safety tip: One of the most common causes of fire in the home is people putting stuff on the stove that isn’t meant to be there.
